There are threats
That walk about in daylight
Breathing, scheming,
Never taking flight
Because they are never pursued.
They roam and hunt,
But they are not overtaken
They operate by appetite
Their confidence unshaken
Within the bounds of human laws
Or else hidden in shadows
Taking by tooth and morsel
What cannot be proven
All cruelty a rehearsal
For darker desires
Impeded by a taste for liberty
If Consequence took a day
Paralyzed or suspended
Rage would have its prey
Without empathy or remorse.
Maybe not immediately.
At first it might keep its cover
To enjoy its reflection
The mirage of being other
Than a void of soul.
We all walk together,
And we wait on them-
Today is their day.
We suffer their whims
We bleed to keep the peace
So they can sate their thirst
Within the confines
Of plausible deniability.
But the are no boundary lines
When we share worlds.
There is only vulnerability
And constant exposure.
You learn ground viewing
And to keep composure
When the wind changes.
Wait. Watch. Pray.
There’s no sense
Flailing in the spider’s web
Your only defense
Is to hope for a storm
To tear the doors
Off your silk prison
To wash the spider out
Into a collison
With something honorable
If you can find it.
Evil is everywhere.
We only catch a few.
God catches them all.
